This 16th century château has been superbly restored to its former glory and stands on high-ground with commanding views across the undulating rural Brittany countryside.

Set in a small village, this historic gem is teeming with period character as well as modern touches, such as a heated swimming pool and Jacuzzi. The surrounding 70-acre parc contains woodland and two meandering rivers – perfect for relaxing walks. And, for those looking for further French charm, the resorts of Perros-Guirec and Trégastel are close by, as are the cathedral towns of Tréguier, Lannion and Guingamp.

A self-drive, three-night break starts from £252 pp (two sharing) and includes three nights’ accommodation with breakfast and dinner. For stays up to 23 December, a fourth night is free. Call  VFB Holidays on 01452 716831 (www.vfbholidays.co.uk)

You can book the independent west wing of a handsome château in an area famous for its volcanic mountains?  Dating from 1700 the château is located in Augerolles, near the valley of Le Mont-Dore whose extinct volcanoes are the source of the Dordogne and Allier rivers.

Exposed stonework, beams and period furnishings ensure lots of character and the elevated position provides unbeatable panoramic views of rolling fields and craggy mountains. Nearby is a pristine lake and the spa town of Vichy.

A week’s rental from 4 October costs from £480 (up to eight sharing plus baby), including a return channel crossing for one car. Call VFB Holidays on 01452 716840 or visit www.vfbholidays.co.uk and search for PRO.63.
